DoctorD 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2010 For David Legg I was stationed in Bad Aibling '68 to '70 and fished the stream on post plus the Traun River and the Red Traun. The Army Rec Area at Chimsee controlled a few klics of the stream. Both the on Post stream and the Red Traun turned out 24" Browns with some regularity.

wyotyer 0 Report post Posted January 26, 2010 15 years. 99.9999% of the flies I've tied have been for trout. The usual, dries, wet/nymphs and streamers. I got a wild hair once and built 4 fairly large saltwater/salmon flies that were never fished. Maybe someday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dafunk5446 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2010 Huh.....I just realized that I havent even been tying for 2 full years yet, I joined this site a couple months after I started tying. Wow seems like it has been much much longer then that, maybe its cause I should have been tying for a lot longer then that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NJ All Day 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2010 Got my first kit oh about 2 years ago, when I first started fly fishing also, I went to a local sport shop called Ray's sport shop. And I was really doubting starting fly fishing, then the one man said never give it up, and I dint and man it's been so much fun, he also gave me a discount on a tying kit, a Jack Dennis fly tying video. Now I know of the beat sport and hobby out there and will never give it up. My first fly was the Suwn Juan Worm, and caught 50+ bluegill on it. Best time ever, catching fish on something out of your own creation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
